Subject:

Description:

The Honors Capstone Experience will be a project of the student's own design that will culminate in a written critical analysis of that experience, and an oral presentation of its results to an audience of peers. The project can be a traditional honors thesis, an artistic/ creative enterprise, scientific research, community service, or any endeavor that has intellectual integrity, challenge, and the potential for critical analysis. Proposals will be submitted to the Honors Committee by the beginning of the senior (or the Capstone) year. The Capstone Experience will include attendance at mandatory Capstone Seminar (described below) that will meet four times each semester. The seminar will prepare the student for both presentation and writing. The seminar director together with the Capstone Project advisor will determine the final grade.Notes: Capstone Seminar: Four mandatory meetings in each semester of the Capstone year. Students will report on progress and, through practice presentations and writing drafts, receive instruction and feedback in the process of formulating the written and oral components of the Capstone Experience. Project advisors are encouraged to attend one or more sessions. There will be about 10 students in each section of the seminar. Each section will be led by a member of the Honors Committee.
